(Shadow's POV)

It's the next morning and I see my roommate Nebula woke up before me. At least she's gotten a good night's sleep and no longer a wreck from the lack of sleep due to torment and torture from her bullies. She seems to have gotten better by her friends.

"Buenos días, Shadow." She said with her amazing Spanish voice.

"Hello there, Nebula." I greeted her back.

"Time for school. Dancing class and this time are Arabian." Nebula said.

"Yup. Let me just get dressed first." I said as I head into the bathroom.

"Okay then." Nebula then goes to wait for me.

Soon as I got dressed, I looked at myself in the mirror making sure everything's checked.

"Scourge you better leave everyone's life alone," I said to my reflection as I headed out to dance class.

We were all dressed in Arabian fashion outfits to blend in with the dancing traditions of the Arabian dance.

"Arabian royalty had many ways of dances. In partner dancing, the music makes their bodies feel the rhythm to match each other's moves. Now, let's begin." The teacher said as she turns on the Arabian music.

The girls then held their hands upholding the dress a bit before holding up the right handshaking their bodies a bit. I and the guys swung our arms before swiping at the floor with our right hand. The girls then shake their dress again as they dance with us guys getting up and like the girls held our hands together before spinning and switching sides.

Nebula sure looks pretty in that dress. We repeated it and the guys and I then got on our knees as the girls then lifted their hands and then goes to the left.

"Very charming of you, señor Shadow." Nebula said to me.

"Gracias señorita Nebula." I replied.

Nebula then went sideways and spins around with the girls before we guys got up, "I must say, Shadow. You are a man of mysteries." Nebula said as we both did the final dance move.

"Guess I am, señorita," I replied and we did our moves by putting our hands together and then lift them.

"Am I the only person you trust the most or do you see we both have something in common?" She asked.

"Maybe consider we share a room," I said.

As soon as the music finished, we all finished the partner dance.

"Very well-done ladies and gentlemen. Now a final bow and a kiss on your lady's hand." The teacher said.

I bowed and took Nebula's hand to kiss it.

"Muy bueno on the dance, señor." Nebula said. The way she speaks with a little Spanish is just very beautiful.

"Gracias," I replied in Spanish.

"Now students, tomorrow will be a flamenco dance. One of the amazing Spanish dances in Spain from history. So, I expect you all to study the dance video tonight. Have a good day." The teachers said.

"Es mi favorito." Nebula said to me.

"Okay then." I understood what she meant.

(Sonic's POV)

Oh man, I can't believe I'm in a class of hell and my worst fears. Swimming class.

"Come on Sonic, the water is not that bad," Amy said.

"The only thing I hate is getting my life drowned in hell and this is my nightmare come true," I said, trembling a little from the sight of all that water in the pool.

"Don't worry, Sonic. I'll be there." Amy assured me.

"You promise to keep me alive from the water of death?" I begged with mercy.

"Of course Sonikku." Amy smiled and held my hand.

"I hope I have swimming potential but I don't." I held her hand too.

"All right starfishes. Gather up!" The female mobian dolphin teacher said.

We all gathered up in line. Man, I can't believe Scourge is in this class and he knows I can't swim.

"For those of you who are marine mammals, we know you are great swimmers. Those of you on land, you got to learn the meaning of swimming and surviving like a wild animal to fight for your life." The teacher said.

"Yes, miss." They all nodded.

"If any of your friends can't swim, please help them overcome their fears. Do not make fun of their fears because it's not nice and you have no idea what it's like to feel so much panic attacks of that fear." The teacher instructed.

"I already know that feeling of hell giving me," I said to myself.

"Are everyone ready for this lesson?!" The dolphin teacher then asked us all.

Everyone nodded but I didn't. I am so not happy to be in this class of hell.

"Good then let's get started. Give me 6 rounds, to begin with!" The teacher blew the whistle.

Good thing I'm wearing a life jacket that the swim teacher gave me because I already told her that I can't swim that well.

"Okay get ready." Amy brought me into the water.

I went in but I could not get in all the way because of my phobia.

"Relax Sonic," Amy said calmly.

"Man, it's like if a shark or sea monster drowns me to death." I gulped nervously as I tried to fight my fear.

"Don't be silly Sonic." Amy shook her head.

I just cling to Amy since I don't like swimming alone. I don't like this at all. I may have a life jacket to keep me floated on the surface but I'm not a very good swimmer.

"Watch and learn." She tried to show me.

"Okay." I gulped nervously and watched how she swims.

She swam at the surface doing the frog swim as I would call it, I tried to do how she does but it was not easy first. C'mon, swallow your fear Sonic. I had to make sure my legs are simultaneously drawn towards the body and bent at the knees with the feet together and move the arms forward and back to the sides to then repeat. I saw Amy looking back smiling proudly.

"What's the matter, blue wuss? Afraid to drown?" Scourge said behind me.

"Zip it Scourge!" I snapped at him.

"You don't belong here, blue wuss. You don't belong anywhere." Scourge smirked.

"Everyone is all equal, Scourge. You just don't know anything about equality." I glared at him.

"I don't care about equality. I care about being on top. You are standing in my way of it." Scourge threaten me.

I just ignored him as I kept swimming.

(Silver's POV)

I do like animals but not those that have hunting aggressive behavior. Here I am in biology class with my roommate Blaze. She and I have been best friends for a long time. At first, we were like a brother and sister relationship but as we got older, we felt like we were lovers but apparently, we are a little young to rush into a relationship.

Right now, I'm just playing with an albino lion cub that is curiously playing with my chest fur mane. Blaze always thinks my chest fur is like a lion mane.

"Seems he likes you." Blaze couldn't contain her giggles.

"Heh, I think he's impatient to grow a mane like his daddy." I chuckled.

"Maybe. But they sure grow up fast." Blaze petted the cub.

"Sometimes I wonder why most big cats are the famous apex predators. Do you think lions are entitled as king of the jungle just because of their hairdo?" I asked and caressed my animal sidekick cub.

"Maybe, even though tigers are bigger, lions are stronger." Blaze said.

My cub is playing with my chest fur mane too much like he wants to be like his daddy. He let out cute mewls like a cute kitty since he's very young to get his adult lion roar.

"Good boy." I caressed his back.

I noticed Blaze smiling at the cub and sat next to me.

"Is it true you can land on your feet like a cat?" I asked.

"Yeah, I'm a cat after all." Blaze replied.

"Okay, just asking if you wear high-heels won't they get damaged from such heights?" I asked again.

"Sometimes but I have ways to save up my nine lives. Even this cute fella that is like my feline kind." Blaze held her cute tiger cub.

"Awww…. cute." I petted her tiger cub.
